Extra 23: No

At that moment, Gabriel was doing the math and moving money around his accounts to get the amount. that man had demanded to bring him his beloved.

He then looked up and saw the old photo on his desk that showed his mother and him as a young man.

"God... see? I told you, you were wrong. Samantha was never interested in my inheritance... She loved me sincerely because her parents weren't as poor as you thought. In fact, they helped that idiot grow his fortune."

He really loved and hated his mother for everything she did.

He loved her because she supported him, cared for him, pampered him... she gave him all the love a mother could offer her son. But... At the same time, he hated her because she ruined his life.

It was her fault that he lost the love of his life simply because she didn't accept her as a daughter-in-law. Even though he begged and told her that Samantha wasn't like that, that damn woman managed blackmail him with her maternal love, claiming she knew what was best for him.

Sadly, it was only in her final days that his mother admitted she had done wrong and had damaged her son's happiness. She had forced Gabriel to marry the woman she had chosen and approved of... but they divorced a year later. He never fulfilled her dream of becoming a grandmother and seeing her grandchildren grow up... because her son was stuck in the memory of Samantha, who did get over the breakup and sought her own happiness with another man.

Obviously, as soon as he buried his mother, he decided to go replace his beloved Samantha, hoping she too had a failed marriage because she missed him and was waiting for him.

Unfortunately, when he got to the city, he saw she was still with that idiot, and even worse, at that moment, they were taking a walk in the park with two babies and two children, which meant she had forgotten him and was already a grandmother. He hated seeing that happiness.

He was supposed to be by her side at those moments... but no, here he was hiding, watching that beautiful woman who had aged with grace from a distance.

Remembering this, Gabriel tried to shake off those thoughts. Soon, everything would change.

"Boss..." His assistant arrived at his side. "Are you sure about this?"

""About what?"

"Spending five million all at once on something so silly!"

"It's not silly, and yes, that's what I'm going to do."

"But..."

"But what?"

"It's just that money is a third of what we have left."

"What...! Wait... we only have 15 million left? What about the rest of the fortune?"

"I've already told you, we're spending more than we're earning, and the lawsuits have been draining us financially," he said, showing Gabriel a report of the company's income and expenses.

"This must be a joke," Gabriel grumbled, grabbing the papers to read them, noticing that it was true... his fortune was disappearing at an alarming rate.

"It's not a joke, boss... I wish it was, but it's not," the assistant said, grimacing. "That's why I told you this was a bad idea. You have no knowledge about construction or the necessary permits for a project."

"Damn it... so, what do you recommend I do?"

"Forget about all this and use the little money we have left to go back to what we know: managing department stores," he said, frowning slightly. "Sir, you've neglected the company for too long, and in the long run, that's bad. You could lose everything." "But I'm so close to getting Samantha back."

"That's not true! Boss, just forget about her... you lost her a long time ago, and remember, it happened because YOU ended the relationship."

"But I didn't want to; I was forced to."

"But at the end of the day, you did it," the assistant said angrily. "So now you have to act like an adult and live with the decisions you've made, taking the good and the bad that comes with them."
